20140196492 | System and method for a portable ice skating rink - A portable ice skating rink comprising, a flexible rubber sheet having a first end and a second end wherein the first end is connected to the second end thereby forming a sidewall, wherein the sidewall is positioned on a horizontal surface to form the border of a closed geometric shape thereby defining a skating surface area, and a flexible, water-proof slip draped over and connected to the sidewalls, thereby forming a liner of a structure capable of containing a liquid inward of the sidewalls to create a skating surface. | 07-17-2014 |
20160045815 | System and Method For a Portable Ice Skating Rink - The present invention discloses a portable and modular ice skating rink structure kit that includes a liner, sidewall, a wicket or slotted anchor block for supporting the sidewall, and sidewall connectors and liner clips. The skating rink disclosed herein may be used on hard or soft surfaces. The sidewall is supported by wickets for use with soft surfaces, such as ground, and slotted anchor blocks for use with hard surfaces, such as pavement. Once the sidewall is supported, a liner is draped over the playing surface and the sidewalls create a pool of water. When temperatures fall below freezing, a smooth sheet of surface ice is created. | 02-18-2016 |

20090134640 | StopGuard - StopGuard is a creative and new in-site, in the residential security demand for better and more effective alternatives in the safeguarding of life safety, as well as the protection of personal property. In addition, StopGuard will introduce the industry to a new method of anti-intrusion. Not to exclude other applicable situations that the StopGuard device may be implemented or used to accomplish its clear advantage of resistance, deterrence, and stopping capabilities by integrating the strength and integrity of the strongest and closest (as reference to proximity) access going in and out of the home. StopGuard will accomplish this task by a combination of unbreakable hardware in association with the concrete or other floor material to successfully protect the occupants of the home from unlawful entry. StopGuard, when in place, will block the door and provide invaluable protection with the new concept of integrating an alternative place for protecting the home. | 05-28-2009 |

20100296918 | METHOD FOR DETERMINING THE REMAINING SERVICE LIFE OF A ROTOR OF A THERMALLY LOADED TURBOENGINE - A method is provided for determining the remaining service life of a rotor of a thermally loaded turboengine. In the method, a temperature on the rotor is determined, the thermal stress on the rotor is derived from the determined temperature, and the remaining service life of the rotor is deduced from the derived thermal stress. A simple, exact and flexible determination of the remaining service life is achieved in that the temperature is measured directly at a predetermined point of the rotor, and in that the thermal stress on the rotor is derived from the measured temperature. | 11-25-2010 |

20100061352 | METHOD FOR ROUTING TRAFFIC IN A LOCAL MOBILE COMMUNICATION NETWORK - A method for routing VoIP traffic in a local mobile communication network includes selecting a path among a set of possible paths between two nodes of the network based on the number of hops and the transmission time of a reference voice packet along the possible paths, the transmission time along each path being a function of the transmission rates associated with the links composing the path. | 03-11-2010 |
20110276633 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DATA MANAGEMENT IN PEER-TO- PEER NETWORK - A method for managing storage of data objects in a peer-to-peer system including a plurality of peer entities is provided. For each data object to be stored into the peer-to-peer system, the method including establishing a group of peer entities so that the group meets a stability requirement according to predetermined stability rules, storing the data object into each peer entity of the group, and each peer entity of the group generating and maintaining a group list associated with the data object, which includes the peer entities of the group. | 11-10-2011 |

20120167745 | RETROFIT KIT AND METHOD FOR TUNING AND MIKING RESONANT SIDE DRUMHEAD - The resonant drum head mounted speaker cone retrofit kit improves the sound of the drum on audio recordings and in live sound situations and changes the way the drum is miked in live and studio applications. The center of the resonant drumhead is cut out and a speaker cone assembly is attached thereon facing outwards. The speaker cone, which also vibrates from this pressure, now becomes the miked surface of the instrument. Using otherwise conventional miking techniques, a wider range of attack and tone characteristics can be obtained from the drumhead. Additionally, use of optional speaker cone sizing, composition options and differences in tension also contribute to define and tune the sound characteristics based on end user preference. | 07-05-2012 |

20090100984 | Special Resonant Side Drumhead for Live and Studio Miking Applications - The resonant drum head mounted speaker cone apparatus improves the sound of the drum on audio recordings and in live sound situations and changes the way the drum is miked in live and studio applications. By integrating the resonant side drumhead with a speaker cone, when the drum is hit (on the batter head), the air pressure generated inside the drum moves the opposite resonant head. The center of the resonant drumhead is cut out and a speaker cone with the dust cap is glued to the inside thereof facing outwards. The speaker cone, which also vibrates from this pressure, now becomes the miked surface of the instrument as opposed to previously having to mike the drum from above the respective batter heads where it often interferes with the player. Using otherwise conventional miking techniques, a wider range of attack and tone characteristics can be obtained from the drumhead. Additionally, use of optional speaker cone sizing, speaker and dust cap composition options and dust cap sound holes also contribute to define the sound characteristics based on end user preference. | 04-23-2009 |

20140013927 | KIT AND METHOD FOR TUNING RESONANT SIDE DRUMHEAD FITTED WITH SPEAKER CONE AND AUDIO FOAM DUST CAP - The resonant drum head mounted speaker cone retrofit kit improves the sound of the drum on audio recordings and in live sound situations and changes the way the drum is miked in live and studio applications. The center of the resonant drumhead is cut out and a speaker cone assembly is attached thereon facing outwards. The speaker cone, which also vibrates from this pressure, now becomes the miked surface of the instrument. Using otherwise conventional miking techniques, a wider range of attack and tone characteristics can be obtained from the drumhead. Additionally, the use of varying speaker cone sizing, an audio foam dust cap, and cone composition options and differences in drum head tension, also contribute to define and tune the sound characteristics based on end user preference. | 01-16-2014 |
